The Sony Ericsson K61Oi comes as a replacement for the K600 series and complements the company's strategy of incrementally improving its existing models. Weighing a meager 92 grams, the K610i is one the lightest 3G phone to date. But within its sleek dimension the phone hosts a multitude of cutting-edge features.The design aesthetics of the K610i is fashionable yet austere and the 'Urban Red' and 'Evening Silver' colour schemes are visually appealing. The K610i comes with a 2 megapixel digital camera with a 262 K colour display and secondary camera for video calling. The absence of an auto-focus reduces the overall potential of the camera but the picture quality is impeccable.
In comparison to the Walkman series phones the integrated music player on the K610i is pretty ordinary and the audio quality is nothing to write home about. The omission of earphones, paltry memory and limited music controls cripple the handset's music playing capabilities. On the connectivity front though the K610i scores high. This tri-band GSM handset delivers high speed connectivity and caters to most communication needs. 3G, UMTS, GPRS – all modes of communication are included in it's profile. There's Bluetooth, Modem and USB support for easy and convenient file and data transference. Push email functionality and PC synchronization ensures that you can optimize your work on the go. You can update yourself on news, weather and other reports through RSS feeds.
The K610i is designed to bring 3G technology to the masses and is one of the best mid segment handset to do so. The feature set is impressive and calling and messaging options are plenty. What is most impressive about the K610i is the performance of its camera. The imaging quality is superior to most of its near rivals.
